I don't know where to begin....

I know I've been gone for a minute, but I am going to make a commitment to blogging again. There has been so much going on, but for the most part it hasn't all been productive. I am a serious procrastinator and distraction lover. I wait until the last minute and even in that moment, I look for something else to do.

It's time to grow the hell up. At damn near 30, you'd think that to be a ridiculous statement, but it's true. The hair on my face. Bass in my voice. Height. Weight. Education. None of that means a hill of beans when you can't face the present in a mature manner. I've been running away and running in circles. If it is to be, it is up to me. It's a process I've avoided for damn near 30 years. Long overdue.

What are you guys reading out there? I'm reading a book entitled "Growing Up Black". It's a collection of essays that include the stories of Amiri Baraka, Angela Davis and Maya Angelou to name a few. It captures poignant moments in their coming of age. I find it ironic that I would be reading this book and experiencing the recent eye openers on my very own immaturity.

Adam4Adam and BGC may have become an addiction for me. I don't necessarily hook up with any of the guys, but the sites were becoming a Facebook for me. So, I deleted both. I've deleted before. Let's see how long this last.

I def agree...I been gone a minute too with blogging after all I wrote. Lost a lot of viewers but yeah I am nearing that 30 too and its time again to start making moves. I have become stagnant and need to keep things moving forward without letting people that aren't positive hold me back.

I just wrote an update post trying to get back into the groove of things.

Get focused and realize where you were before and where you are now. If it isn't where you want to be only you can change your situation. Set a goal of where you want to be and setup a plan to get there within a time frame......
